"I've determined that Carl Walrath will not return to
participate in our men's lacrosse program and have met with him to
inform him of this decision," Virginia athletic director Craig
Littlepage said in a statement to Lacrosse Magazine
through a team spokesperson. "We thank him for his contributions to
the program and wish him the best in the future."

Walrath had originally been charged with felony assault,
resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and public intoxication, but
prosecutors dropped the disorderly conduct and intoxication
charges. He was sentenced to 90 days in jail on the assault charge,
with 80 days suspended, giving him a 10-day active sentence. He was
sentenced to 30 days in jail on the obstruction charge, with all
days suspended.

Walrath was suspended indefinitely from the lacrosse team after
the incident, which happened around 2 a.m. Nov. 24 on University
Avenue in Charlottesville on the Corner, an area of bars,
restaurants and stores across from the Virginia campus. Police
ordered a group of about 10 people involved in a fight to stop and
Walrath was the lone person to not obey, according to police, who
said Walrath punched an officer in the face and fled on foot. He
was later found, arrested and released on bond.

A team spokesperson told LM on Monday that Walrath was still
enrolled at Virginia.

The junior midfielder from The Haverford School (Pa.) appeared
in nine games last season, registering one point, and at times ran
on Virginia's second midfield line.
